Abstract

Using duality, we reformulate the asymmetric variational inequality (VI) problem over a conic region as an optimization problem. We give sufficient conditions for the convexity of this reformulation. We thereby identify a class of VIs that includes monotone affine VIs over polyhedra, which may be solved by commercial optimization solvers.
